RE:Welcome to WinstonThank you sumpineh, I appreciate the welcome. I enjoy your posts as well, there are quite a few posters on here who provide valuable and insightful information. I try my best to avoid conflict in person and online, I always try to surround myself with positive people who have positive attitudes.
Early on in my career while I was working in a corporate environment, I encountered lots of nice, positive people who I became very close with, but I also encountered many negative bullies. I knew it was nothing personal, since those who bully one are likely to bully many, but still, I vowed to myself that, as soon as I figured out how, I would make money on my own and not be dependent on other people so that I have the freedom of spending all my time with people who I enjoy being with. I'll say that the proverb "where there's a will there's a way" is accurate, as I figured out how to do exactly that, and I couldn't be happier.
I always teach my kids to be polite, courteous, and respectful towards others. When they have a bad day I try to help them find the positives in a bad situation. Just as there's currently a lot of negative sentiment surrounding XBC and green energy stocks in general, I believe there's lots of positives to look forward to and that's it's always darkest before the dawn. When the sector returns to favour all shareholders will be happy they've held onto their shares.

I feel similar to you in that I owned XBC a long time before I first posted.(not being a social media type person) and still have a lot of confidence that we have a great future. Learn to use the ignore button for those who attack you. They mostly do it to make themselves feel superior anyway. You know already whose posts you enjoy for their information or for their humour.Take care. GLTA (longs)
